ECHO supports children and young people with heart conditions and their families, who’ve been treated by Evelina London and its network hospitals across the UK.

Families are supported at every stage of their heart child’s journey from the moment of diagnosis through childhood, teenage years and during the transition to adult services.

ECHO provides practical and emotional support and welcomes families into a community of shared experience and understanding, at times when there is little other help available.

ECHO were the strength the Brace family needed during our darkest days. The support during Marnies life was incredible and the support didn’t waiver after her death.

Beachy Head Marathon happens to fallen on Marnie’s Anniversary, it will be a hard race but I will have Marnie with me all the way… and my beautiful friend Poppy who’s a rock in my life.

I think this will be my hardest challenge yet.
